Michael Hofstetter conducts Haydn's earliest church piece and one of his last masses in Stainz - an entire musical life in one hour of music.
When Austria's Empress Marie Therèse, granddaughter of the legendary Maria Theresa, fell in love with Haydn's ‘Theresienmesse’, there had been no monks in Stainz for 15 years.
Thanks to Archduke Johann, the monastery and church have been preserved and, thanks to the Styriarte, they become the stage for an annual festival of pious song.
Before the concert, the municipality of Stainz invites you to a Schilcher reception in the castle courtyard.
